PORTLAND DIAMONDS.
Gems That DON'T Always Co With
Good Clothes.

Diamonds and broadcloth don't always
go together" said the jeweler to a PRESS re-
porter. The other day shabby looking fell
low came into our store, and after leisurely
looking around for few moments he stop
ped at the counter behind which was
standing, and proceeded to unfold piece of
brown paper"
i've been thinking about having that set"
said he, as he took from the paper fine dia-
mond worth, | should say, some 500. /
looked at him in surprise, which he needed
not. But he went on to say that a friend
mad given him the diamond for a service
which he had rendered him."
What do you get for diamond weighing a
carat?
'Well, we do not sell many of the best
stones in this city, but the prices run from
$50 to $1,000, and sometimes even more for
an extra fine diamond. Stones bringing from
$75 to $3.50 carat, find larger sale in this
city than more valuable ones" Eyes, the
precious stones keep queer company some
times and valuable ones are often shown us
by strangers who might well be regarded as
tramps if met in the streets. How such peo-
Pile come to possess the diamonds do not
know, but they seem to have peculiar adj
nllration for them"
What does the largest diamond kept by
any jeweler in this city weigh?
~, Well, l cannot tell you that, but
doubt If a stone can be found in the city at
present. weighing more than three or four
carats."
The largest diamond found, after visiting
all the leading diamond stores, weighed an
even four carats, and was valued at about
